"The Gold King" takins sensatlonal drama wa- r-~uuueu to crowded houses at Bunnell's yesterday afternoon and evening. G. w. and I. G. Thompson's excellent com pany of actors present the play in very ac- ceptable manner.

confidence or to excite his terror. One of the strongest proofs of his story of Jaehne's confession is that 1t was so true to the char acter of Jaehne and so entirely what might be expected of Byrnes. Speaking of Jaehne's confession the inspector said yesterday:
 "I did not tell on the witness stand all that Jaehne told me. It would not have been legal evidence, but if were to repeat the whole story to you. your hair would stand on end. It was the most astonishing story of political corruption ever listened to-"
 ''Did you know that Jaehne, was a fencea"
 "My first knowledge of Jaehne came in 1888, when had captured couple of thieves and they told me they had disposed of their plunder to him. sent man to bring him to me. He found him late that night at Coney Island and brought him to my house. told him what had learned and I never saw such spectacle of cowardice in my life. The precipitation rolled of his face in beads. He denied it, however, and had no other proof than the statement of self-confessed thieves.
 "Then I had his house watched and he found out that we were piping him off, as the phrase is. He came here and pleaded with me like baby to let him alone. We'll, as matter of fact, hadn't the slightest thing against him that could be proved. But threatened to expose him and from that moment the craven was in my power.''
 Glow do American thieves compare in cleverness with these of other nationalities?' "They are the smartest knaves in exist ence. Fifteen years ago it took wagon full of tools to crack safe. Now, American burglars have invented implements which they can carry in their overcoat pockets by which they can open any safe in existence in half an hour"
 "Then there is no such thing as burglar proof safe?'
 ''No. Suppose an expert burglar proposes to rob bank. He will find out what kind of safe is there and buy one like it. He will work for weeks and months learning it's lock. At the end of that time he can open it as readily as the man who knows it's com bination. New York is very difficult city to protect, it has so many inlets and out lets. But thieves are like sheep. They must have affiliations. Suppose new ones come here from abroad, as they do in droves. In the course of few days they are seen in the company of some crook known to us, and from that moment they are under espionage I never yet have met crook whom couldn't frighten into furnishing me with enough clews to convict him if he was guilty. It is said that there is Fhonor among thieves It disappears like steam in the air when l get them here in this room.

 The town meeting this afternoon will doubtless be we'll attended. Said promi- nent gentleman yesterday: "The object of the town meeting, which is chiefly to vote sufficient funds to do the necessary grading about the monument on East Rock and pay for proper coping of the monument lot, is one which appeals strongly to our patriotism and municipal pride. The monument is to stand on East Rock for centuries to come an ornament to our city and it's park, a land mark to cheer and guide the mariner off our coast and commemorative of the deeds of heroic men who gave their all for their coun- try. They died that our nation might live. They died that our union might not be dis membered and divided and forever torn with fratricidal broils and strife. They sleep, some in southern bayous, some in the tangled wildnerness, some in the graves about Libby and Andersonville. New Haven ftly honors their memory The meeting to-day will ask for small additional sum requisite to com plete the surroundings of the monument. There can be but one response.

 One company of the Fourth regiment has written signifying it's acceptance of the invi- tation to be present at the dedication.
 Grand Marshal Greeley has the horse pick ed out which he will ride on June IT. He has three fine horses of his own, but has chosen one from another quarter to ride on that occasion.
 Chief Bollman has been notified to call a meeting of the assistant marshals for to- morrow evening at 7:30 at his office.
 The subcommittee on carriages met last evening.
 The East Rock Park commissioners met yesterday morning and decided that admit tance to the Park on June IT must be by way of the Farnam drive and all persons must ab- sent themselves by Ii pm. The question as to the advisability of placing coping about the base of the monument was not decided.

 all

Notwithstanding the unfagging exertions of the authorities no clue has been found yet as to the cause and manner of the death of young Way, the station agent. The impress sion grows that he met his death by violence and foul play. He had from $50 to $100 an hour or so before he WAS killed; not dollar of it was found in his pockets and the wallet was empty. He was found lying on his back across the track, and the engineer, who saw the body too late to stop the train, says it lay motionless and rigid. There is some talk in Branford of the towns offering reward, but some of the authorities still think it was case of suicide.

It has been learned by the committee that in competition for prizes that the hose companies in Derby, Ansonia, Nor walk and other places are practicing daily in order to compete for prizes. This is not in cluding any engine companies, of which, un- doubtedly, there will be a large number present.

The universal use and adaptability of
the French title of courtesy, MADAME, Z"
common also to Germans, and the Italian
''Signora,'' with their respective diminu-
tives, "Mademoiselle, "Fraulein" and
''Signorina," mark distinction, the alb
sence of conversational equivalent to
which is, in our country, socially speak
ing, most inconvenient. Without an ex-
act knowledge of a PERSONS name the
most polite of Englishmen is left without
any elegant means of avoiding what bor-
ders on rudeness. In foreign tongue 1t
is possible to converse any length of time
with a nameless MADAME" or even
ssMam' zelle," or to refer to her existence
without any awkwardness, while these
simple forms of address will be further
ound to cover all difficulties in determin-
ing the often vexed questions of rank and

rich in literary excellence, but it must be
admitted it is somewhat deficient in the

Temperature of the Bath.

There are number of varieties of bath
at each temperature. Thus, If the entire
body IL submerged, 1t Is a full bath; IL
only half, it is half bath: If the feet only
are immersed, 1t is foot bath, etc.
Sponging the entire surface is an easy
and convenient means of securing most Of
disadvantages Of full bath, while the
trouble OF the latter expense ALSO Is
avoided. II cold water is used, the skin
il stimulated and the nervous system re-
ceives all the tonic effects to be had from
bathing. The shower bath is still more
stimulating to the nerves and skin. II it
Is cold, there may be considerable risk of
doing injury: This 10 true of all forms of
'tcold" baths. No one with degenerated
heart or arteries should incur the dangers
of the cold "full" or Shower bath" The
first effect OF the application Of cold to the
skin is to cause sudden contraction OF
all the small blood vessels, thus driving
the blood in upon the central organs. An
additional strain is thus placed upon the
vessels of the lungs, brain, In fact, OF the
whole interior department. If their walls
